If anyone with a bit of perl cgi exprience can help me out here, I'd appreciate it.

I'm trying to embed javascript with a perl cgi script. So when the perl outputs its html code, it also outputs the javascript within the html.

Can't get it to work though.
Any ideas?

What doew the javascript look like that you are trying to embed.
Make sure you backslash any character perl might interpert wrong.

The backslash is constant battle for me, I always miss one of them while trying to change something. I would suggest the easiest way to do this would be to send the dat requireing the jave to be between the appropriate commands EOF instead of using the print command
print "&#60HTML&#62&#60HEAD&#62&#60TITLE&#62$page_title& #60/TITLE&#62&#60/HEAD&#62\n";

e.g.
*****************************************

print &#60&#60EOF;

&#60HTML&#62
&#60HEAD&#62
&#60script language="javascript"&#62
&#60 !--
var WhatDaFk
function WhatDa() {
window.open('$image_dir/index.html','WhatDaFk','toolbar=0,location=0,direc tories=0,status=0,menubar=0,scrollbars=1,resizable =0,width=250,height=200');
}
// --&#62
&#60/script&#62

&#60/HEAD&#62
&#60body&#62
content goes here
&#60/body&#62
&#60/HTML&#62

EOF
&Footer;
}

Hope it May Help U
